16 Class Meetings – September 2022
In this unit, students expand and deepen their prior understanding of expressions, equations, and
inequalities. Students reason about equations, inequalities, and systems of equations and
inequalities as ways to represent constraints, and they reason about the process of solving
equations and inequalities in terms of finding values that satisfy those constraints. The process of
finding solutions may involve rewriting and manipulating equations. Students learn to explain
and validate the steps to do so. Throughout the unit, students practice reasoning about situations
and mathematical representations, interpreting expressions and numbers in context, and using
mathematical tools to model quantities and relationships.
